About the speaker distance

When enjoying multi-channel surround playback with Dolby Digital and DTS sources, etc., it is ideal that the center, surround and surround back speakers etc. should be the same distance from the main listening position as the front speakers. By entering the distance between the listening position and each speaker, the delay times of center, surround and surround back speakers, etc. are automatically adjusted to create an ideal listening environment virtually as if the center, surround and surround back speakers, etc. were at their ideal locations respectively.
